Fairfax Meadows Europe Ltd, UK

Working with LEC the Argent Group, representatives of the Fairfax Meadows Europe, sought to ensure all their buildings are MEES compliant. Spread across the UK, predominately in the Midlands and Southern Coast, these large meat process plants required details on how to be compliant and ready for April 2018.

How we worked with our client

LEC conducted detailed on site energy assessments to arrive at the current EPC energy ratings. From here it was established where concerted efforts or means to mitigate high energy use be applied. LEC pride themselves on their ability to hone in on the main energy demand elements and tailor the suggestion to suit this, rather than diving straight into expensive technology fixes.

The benefits of working with LEC

LEC have a wealth of experience in the Energy and Sustainability sector. The team have worked with the emerging changes of the London Plan to its present form and seen this permeate across the UK. Each assessment and statement is tackled with the same pragmatic and proactive approach. This is also kept in balance with our in depth HEVAC knowledge and experience. Our solutions are always based upon practicalities, balancing the client aspirations and planning requirements.

Sometimes overlooked and undervalued is the power of negotiated compliance. Not all schemes are best suited to 100% compliance, so at LEC we maximise, where suitable, the best compliance route at the same time as holding open discussions with the planning authorities.
